'''EmulationStation''' is a graphical and themeable [[Frontends|launcher]] for various emulators. It can import custom themes to use, but it doesn't have a large community so there is not an abundance of these. Comes with a metadata scraper. It is a great front end, and thanks to some users on the [[RetroPie]] Forum, development has been picked up after the original developers left. Some new additions include support for video playback as well as custom carousels. ==Download=={| cellpadding="4"|-|align=center|{{Icon|Win-big|Lin-big|macOS-big}}|[https://www.es-de.org/#Download '''EmulationStation Desktop Edition''']<br /><small>An active fork of EmulationStation made for desktop use.</small>|-|align=center|{{Icon|Win-big|Lin-big|LinuxARM-big}}|[https://github.com/RetroPie/EmulationStation/releases '''RetroPie fork Git''']<br /><small>Another active fork of EmulationStation</small>|-|align=center|{{Icon|Win-big}}|[https://github.com/jrassa/EmulationStation/releases '''RetroPie fork Git Continuous Integration Builds''']<br><small>Windows Builds from the RetroPie EmulationStation fork.|-|colspan="3"|<hr/>|-|align=center|{{Icon|LinuxARM|Lin}}|[https://retropie.org.uk/download/ RetroPie package]<br /><small>RetroPie for x86 Linux is only available Ubuntu (16.04 LTS or later) and Debian based distros.</small>|-|align=center|{{Icon|Win}}|[https://github.com/fabricecaruso/batocera-emulationstation/releases Batocera fork]<br /><small>Another active fork, from [https://batocera.org/ Batocera.linux]</small>|-|align=center|{{Icon|Win|Lin|LinuxARM}}|[https://emulationstation.org/#download Original version]<br /><small>Last updated 2015.</small>|} ==List of forks=={| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;"! scope="col"|Name! scope="col"|Platform(s) ! scope="col"|Latest Version! scope="col"|Active! scope="col"|[[Recommended Emulators|Recommended]]|-!colspan="8"|PC / x86|-|[https://www.es-de.org/ EmulationStation Desktop Edition]|align=left|{{Icon|Windows|Linux|macOS}}|[https://www.es-de.org/#Download {{EmulationStation Desktop EditionVer}}]|{{✓}} ||{{✓}}|-|[https://github.com/RetroPie/EmulationStation RetroPie fork]|align=left|{{Icon|Windows|Linux|LinuxARM}}|[https://github.com/RetroPie/EmulationStation 2.11.2]|{{✓}} ||{{~}}<ref group=N name=ARM>These are mostly recommended for Linux ARM based devices such as RetroPie.
